Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE, GOING UPHILL UNDER LOAD, THE FAN SHROUD WAS SUCKED INTO THE FAN, BREAKING A FAN BLADE OFF WHICH PUNCTURED THE RADIATOR CAUSING A LOSS OF COOLANT AND AFFECTING ENGINE POWER. THIS ALSO COULD HAVE LEAD TO A FAILURE OF THE ENGINE ACCESSORY DRIVE BELT CAUSING A LOSS OF THE POWER STEERING AND BRAKES. THIS IS THE SECOND OCCURRENCE OF THIS FAILURE ON MY TRUCK, AND I KNOW OF A NUMBER OF OTHER OWNERS OF RAM CUMMINS TRUCKS WITH THE EXACT SAME FAILURE. THE POSSIBLE LOSS OF THE POWER STEERING AND BRAKES AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SAFETY ISSUE. *TR
